    They haven't been that good, and the Reds need to move on from the marginal players to improve the team.

    Feel like I don't need to see much more of Preston Tucker. It was worth giving him some ABs to see if he could get something going but just hasn't shown much, I'd just give Ervin and Williams every day corner ABs until Schebler is back.

    Zero excitement. At any level of the organization. Frustrating.

    The problem is how do you come by players that are better than marginal players and hold on to them beyond a couple of years before their market value is too high. I think for a small market team that can't afford many high dollar contracts, you have to have some marginal players grow to be very good, and for it to happen for several together in a narrow window of time, before their market value is un-affordable.
